ance that President Hill has not for
gotten his promise to call on the people
of Yanktou next month. He will be here
in person il his duties will permit and
otherwise by q representative. 1t is

Milwaukee track near the asylum and
passing directly to tie river. From the
nearest point it will run o track to its

SOUNDING THE RIVER.
A gentleman who makes frequent trips
across the Missouri tells us that during
the fore part of last week a party OF
strangers was busy sounding the river
off Smutty Bear bottom. They operated
ma Hat bottomed boat to which a sail
was attached. Our informant carried
provisions and ice to them while they
were at work. They answered nj ques,
tions, but kept industriously at work
and when they had finished dropped
down stream and were seen no more.

RAIsING HoRsEs nn M1rIrs.

1t is often a question to the average
farmer, writes correspondent of the
Breeders Gazette, which will be the
most profitable, to breed his mares for
horses or mule colts. Mules generally
sell well, are rather easier to raise, not
quite as subject to disease, will stand
more rough treatment, and can be
broken to service younger than horses.
They are generally more troublesome
about the place, being more inclined
to be "breachy," and where the stock
is all kept in the pasture together, as
is the case on many farms, they are
more troublesome on account of a
disposition to run down calves and
sheep. They are often more trouble
to break and more liable to kick.
They will, taken as an average with
the average farm colts, sell easier and
at a higher price at weaving time. If
you have only average or below aver
age mares, and you are breeding to
the same quality of a horse, should
certainly say take the jack. As be-
tween a scrub colt, which is too often
secured by this kind of mating, l
should certainly prefer to secure a
mules colt, as it would not only prove
more profitable to sell, but makes a
better animal for use on the farm. If
you have good mares, well formed and
well developed, and can breed to a
really good horse, | should certainly
prefer this kind of horse colt to a
mule. So that in determining which
to breed for, | should consider the
animal was breeding as well as the
quality of the horse that | would Sc
cure to mate her with. There is more
money in mule colts than only average
horse colts, but if you are situated so
as to breed and secure a really good
colt-rather above the averagc-such
colts can be made more profitable
than mules.

THE SHAPE on Pigs.

There is difference, writes Colonel
F. ID. Curtis to the Rural Neto Yorker,
in the forms of pigs, even in fixed
breed. Some will have long body
and some short one; some will be
higher on the legs and some lower;
some will have longer snout than
others. The last feature is the least
important. though many persons
make it of the greatest consideration,
while in fact it is really about the last
thing to worry about. If man is
going to keep hogs to please his eye,
he can fuss about an inch or so of
snout as much as he pleases, and make
it the subject of great deal of talk
and thought; but if he is keeping hogs
to make something out of them, and
to help enrich his farm, that is an
other thing. For my part | like a
good strong and moderately long
snout 1t gives the hog the appear
ance of business, something cunning,
while the little piggy, stubbed-off
nose looks as though that pig was fin
ished, and so it is, so far as much
growth is concerned Growth is what
we want in a pig Without it there is
no profit. A pig with long nose
generally has long body. This is a
good point, but it must not be the only
consideration in our selection of a
male. The hams must. be carefully
viewed, and if they are not well
rounded out, and deep down, the pig
is lacking in most valuable part.
The shoulders, too, should be broad,
and the back should be the same, and
well rounded, if we want lots of
sparerib. A fiat-sided hog will make
more mess pork in proportion, and
will lack in thickness along the line.
The legs should always be short, and
this feature denotes an easy keeper,
because such q hog will always be a
quiet one. A long-legged or stilted
hog will always be on the run, and
will never be satisfied with the best of
food. The male should be selected
for special purpose. If the herd
need to be improved in any special
feature, that point should be promi-
nent in the male, but at the same time
he should not be deficient in some
other parts; or while one feature is
being improved another perhaps
equally good will be spoiled.

KEEP THE MANAGERS CLEAN.

The more highbred and spirited the
horse the more dainty he will be
about his feed, and tho greater care
must be taken to keep feed-boxes and
managers free from filth. Almost any
scrub would, however, refuse to eat
out of hangers as they are often left,
with portions of the unconsumed hay
or grain to be run over and soiled by
fowls while the horse is away at work.
This is too-common condition of
many farmers stables at this season,
when increasing warmth dulls the APP
petite and makes soiled food doubly
offensive by its decay. Many hard
working horse gets off his feed, as it
is said, and grows poor from this
cause alone. More care should be
taken at this season TO feed only what
will be eaten clean, whether of hay,
meal, or grain. If any remains when
the horse is taken out in the morning
to work. it should be removed from
the feed box and given to some other
animal that will eat it outside the
stable

COUNTING THE WEEDS.

Professor j. c. Arthur, in his report
for 1886, to the New York experiment
station, gives the number of weeds
found upon one-twentieth of an acre
during the growing season. The land
was part of an abandoned pasture.
1t had been plowed in 1882, and had
borne four crops, with an annual
dressing of commercial fertilizer, but
had received no weed seeds from sta
bic manure, as no manuring had been
given it. The land on all sides had
been in constant and clean cultiva-
ton. The countings were made in
June. July, August, and September,
the largest weeds being pulled up and
removed each time. The result was
S,701 individual plants in 1886, and
4.OOS in 1885, and the entire number OF
species both years was over so. This
examination shows that the number of
individual plants was $1,000 to the
acre. To furnish full information, the
botanic name of every species is
given. Nearly all were of plants
which are never of any use in cult
walton, but few are of useful plants
in the wrong place, according to the
definition that weed is "a plant
growing where it is not wanted, and
not in accordance with Emerson's

A Farmers Convention.

A convention of Southern farmers is
to be held at Atlanta, Ga, August 10.
1t is expected that all of the cotton
States, reckoned as ten in number, will
send delegates, and that the convention
will be large and composed of repre-
sentative and intelligent men. 1t will
be the first gathering of the kind that
was ever held Before the war the
South held what were termed ''con-
gresses," composed of delegates from
the several slave states. But their OBJ
iect was to promote the interests of
slavery and the sectional influences in
politics by which slavery was pro-
tected.
The convention to be held at Allan
Ia next month will, it is presumed, be
free from the influence of Bourbon
politicians and sectional conspirators.
If it is not free from these pernicious
influences it will do more harm than
good.
Afew subjects may be recommended
to the members of this convention for
consideration.
l. They should study the practice of
diversifying crops. They ought to
raise enough grain and meat to supply
food for their own plantations, instead
of raising nothing but cotton and buy
ing their food products at the North.
2. They ought to study the question
of manufactures, and the protection Of
industry by wise United States laws,
Under a system approaching free
trade the new manufactures at the
South would not live year.
8. They ought to cut loose from the
free-trade party.
They ought to give up the notion
advocated by JEFF Davis and the South
ern press, that to make war against the
Government was not treason, nor re-
bellion.
5 They ought to demand protection
for the franchise, and that there shall
be no suppressed vote.
With these and few other truths
firmly established in the Southern mind
and fairly practiced in their public
affairs, the New South would be a
reality, not mere catchword and i'm.

Dear sirs: About three months ago
1 noticing letter addressed to you in
| the Bee from Gen. Slevin, in reference
| to the cure of his son by the use OF
Halls Catarrh Cure, we were induced
to commence the use of it for our
daughter Nellie now fourteen years
old. who has been suffering from ca
tarrh for about eight years, during
which time she has been treated by one
of the best physicians in the city. We
have also tried the use of almost all
the known remedies for catarrh, with
no more success than temporary relief.
Many nights have we laid awake to
hold her mouth open to keep her from
strangling. Her hearing had also be-
come affected. We were afraid that
she would never recover. We have
now used six bottles of Halls Catarrh
Cure, and we believe Nellie to be en-
tirely cured. In few days after COM
mencing the use of it we noticed a de-
cided change for the better, and from
that right along she has improved, un-
til now she breathes as easily as any
one. She sleeps well and her hearing
is perfectly good. We feel that the
disease is entirely removed. We write
this unsolicited letter, feeling that it is
due you, and with the hope that others
may be benefited in like manner We
can hardly realize that such change
could be effected in so short time
after battling with the disease so long.
We are still using the remedy at inter-
walls. as it seems to build up her sys-
tenn. You are at liberty to use this in
any manner you see proper. We are
yours truly.
